Hey there! Welcome to the forums!

Unfortunately, this is not allowed and will have to be flagged.

Basics of the Forums

Hello there, and welcome to the forums! My name is @NagiSeishiro . I really hope you enjoy your time here, and to help you out while you’re here, I have a few things for you!

Rules and Official Links

Read the following links thoroughly:

Gimkit Creative’s Rules

Gimkit Creative’s FAQ

Trust Levels

TL1: (“Basic”)This is most likely your current trust level! You have a brand new account, limited likes, and limited replies.

TL2: (“Members”)This is the trust level I’m currently in. This trust level makes up the majority of the forums. Its the average trust level, with unlimited replies, more available likes, and has the ability to post images.

TL3: Also known as the “Regulars”, they can make their own topics wikis, which allows for unlimited editing. They have unlimited replies, more likes available then the TL2’s, and have stronger flags.

TL4: (“Moderator”) Has the most power compared to the rest of the trust levels, and are able to wiki-fy others posts, can close or open posts, obviously unlimited replies, has the most available likes out of the trust levels, and more.

Categories

Help

Ask for help from other forumers on things such as devices, code problems, and more. Make sure to explain your problem clearly, as it helps us figure out what is wrong.

Community Made Guides

Make your own helpful guides here! Mainly post guides on cool systems and device use. Make sure to always search to see if someone had made the guide before you.

Art

Ask for thumbnails for games, or post guides regarding text, barrier, and custom shape art that will help players make their game look nice. Again, search to see if someone has made the same guide before you.

Devices

This category is pretty much all things about devices, but (from what I’ve seen) is commonly used for advanced research topics.

Updates

Updates is the category where you will find new posts from the Gimkit Team announcing new updates, including what they will contain.

Gimkit Awards

These are community hosted events that are used to focus and reward the cool things we have done using Gimkit!

Important Notes

  • ALWAYS search before you post. You might make a useless help topic that already has the answer. This will cause clutter, which we don’t want.

  • NEVER use AI and call it your own work. Use that beautiful brain of yours and come up with something original, especially for “I need lore pls” topics.

  • BE RESPECTFUL. We are all human, and we all make mistakes. Instead of calling someone out rudely for something they’ve done wrong, correct them politely and encouragingly.

  • STAY ON-TOPIC. This is the #1 thing new users don’t do. Always try to make your replies relate to the current topic. And if you notice yourself and someone else starting to go off-topic, politely say that “Oh, we should probably get back on-topic” or “Getting a little off-topic here, let’s stop.”

  • USE THE LIKE BUTTON. Some people post useless replies like “Good job” or “Looks good.” Yes, these are encouraging and kind, but on most occasions, are not needed or add clutter. Remember to always try to use the like buttons, it’s there for you!

  • NO ACTIVE CODES. Please don’t post any active game codes, as it’s not allowed here on the forums. Instead post them on the Gimkit Wix: Gimkit Wix/Code Sharing

Don’t worry if you mess up or make a mistake here! Everyone has accidentally broken a rule, so it’s OKAY!! Just learn from it, and move on.

So, there you have it, almost all the basics I could cover. Again, I really hope you enjoy your time on these forums, and that you are able to become a valued member of Gimkit Creative! Take these tips and use them for the better of this site.

– @NagiSeishiro (Thanks to Blackjack for inspiring me to do this beginners list. Check his BIO for the OG list.)

(If you have ANY QUESTIONS, ask me, I’ll try my best to help.)

@kh44359 maybe remove Blackjacks ping at the end, so that you don’t notify him every time you post his intro :sweat_smile:

@Jeffo if you could close this (terrifying ping, spooked me to the core), I don’t think OP is gonna respond soon.

I don’t mind the pings, but it’s up to the user posting it if they want to ping me or not. It doesn’t matter to me, haha. I’m just happy that it helps, no matter. :heart:
